Saving What Can Be Saved Of the Legion of Christ and the Lay movement Regnum Christi

George Weigel has a good piece on this at First Things at Saving What Can Be Saved.

Canon Law expert Dr Peters has a blubt post on other related matters So if Maciel was a criminal (or a sociopath), what of his charism?

This is of course a horrible situation but I think the blow is very much softened since besides the most dedicated members of the legion many Catholics have absorbed that bad things went on and there would have to be reform as to the Legion years ago.
